West Virginia

I have been to West Virginia a couple of times. My Uncle and Aunt own a lake house on Smith Mountain Lake and we visit every other year. So you may be wondering why would I want to visit if i have already been? Good question.... When we go i cant get enough of it! I LOVE IT! The views are beautiful and I cant wait to go again. But I really want to explore more of West Virginia besides just the lake that we stay at.


West Virginia is a beautiful and full of breathtaking sites and wildlife. Its also famous for Civil War reenactments. But if your not into that then check out any of the land, water or snow activities. Some land activities include hiking, biking and golfing. Wake boarding, tubing, and river rafting are some of the water activities. A really cool thing to do on the 4th of July is to sit on the lake and watch the fireworks from the boat!! (Just a thought! But its beautiful.)  And lastly some SNOW activities! MY FAVORITE! Anyway tubing, and snowboarding. West Virgina has on of the longest snow seasons in the region.


Also West Virginia has history which is backed by haunted train rides. Harper's Ferry Ghost Tour, and the Halloween Train at Cass Scenic Railroad State Park are some fun ones! Whether or not they are scary is for YOU to find out. Ill pass and stick to the snowboarding. :)
Anyway some pictures for thought!.....
